While in space, a group of scientists are exposed to cosmic radiation due to an explosion that leaves them with superpowers. The group becomes known as The Fantastic Four and keeps evil at bay while figuring out a way to return themselves back to normal. Everyone chose David Tennant for Reed Richards but this fancast may surprise you.



















Ewan McGregor as Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic
Reed Richards, the founding member of the Fantastic Four, is a scientific genius that attended several colleges by the age of 20. At Empire State University he met Ben Grimm, star football player, and Susan Storm, the love of his life. Reed had already begun designing a starship capable of traveling in hyperspace. Sharing his plans with his new roommate, Grimm jokingly volunteered to pilot the craft. Sue also made a bet with Reed that if he ever finished she would accompany him on the trip. As a result of the cosmic explosion he gained the power to stretch and contort his body into any shape imaginable. 


















Alice Eve as Susanne 'Susan' Storm/The Invisible Woman
*Props to Shadow11* With the subtle name change to 'Sussane' I keep trying to distance myself from the first two F4 movies which is difficult. Alice could pull off an amazing Susan Storm in terms of her charm,power and intellect. Susan promised her future husband Reed Richards in college that if he completed his spacecraft she would accompany him on the trip. During the cosmic explosion she gained the power to turn herself and other objects invisible while also being able to manipulate objects and people via an invisible force field. 



















Michael B. Jordan as Johnny Storm/The Human Torch
If you have a problem, work it out in therapy. I remember seeing this kid on Ridiculousness with Rob Dyrdek and he just oozed charisma and confidence and he was pretty funny too. Then fast foward some months later and I hear he's playing Johnny Storm in the F4 reboot and I was truly excited about that choice even before I thought to myself "Wait Human Torch wasn't black.". Regardless, this is a gret chance at reinvention of the character that could even top Chris Evans in the role.  A fresh high school graduate and half-brother of Susan Storm, Johnny is well-known for being hard-headed and sometimes a slacker. He was talked into coming on the space exploration mission by his sister Susan. As a result he gained the power to engulf his entire body in flames, is able to fly, can absorb fire harmlessly into his own body, and can control any nearby fire by sheer force of will. "Flame on!", which the Torch customarily shouts when activating his full-body flame effect, has become his catchphrase.



















Geoff Stults as Ben Grimm/The Thing
A star football player that jokingly agreed to pilot his best friend's trip to outer space. Exposure to a cosmic explosion made him a rocky, orange giant with incredible strength. Known for his famous yell "It's clobberin' time" which he used in his football games, he brought that aspect of his personality with him while in the Fantastic Four.

 

















Johnny Depp as Victor Von Doom/Dr. Doom
The man who funded Richards' spacecraft for exploration, Von Doom himself was exposed to the cosmix explosion giving him technopathy and electromagnetic manipulation. The explosion, however, scarred him severly and he was bedridden for several months. With his company bankrupt he blamed Richards and used the last of his profits to have a suit forged for him.



















Rachel Nichols as Carol Danvers/Ms. Marvel
The love intrest of Johnny Storm and classmate/friend of his half sister Sue, she was Johnny's reason for going on the spacecraft mission in the first place. Ironically, she seemed to be the only one who did not gain any powers due to the cosmic explosion but later was seen to possess superhuman strength, speed, stamina, and durability along with energy projection and absorbtion.

Awesome, not a big fan of Doom though. I'd recommend Tom Hardy personally, but he's a pretty generic choice.

We already have the perfect cast. No need for this.

If you're gonna have a black Johnny Storm, why not cast a black Susan Storm?
Or are you scared of interracial marriage?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I began to laugh at loud when you said: "If you have a problem, work it out in therapy." That was hilarious. You were like: "Man, you are so old-fashioned. Change is good and you are racist, bitch".

How about not making any of them British....Could that be a thing?

I read an article not that long ago about how being too hot can actually kill your acting career. That if you're too attractive people assume you either can't act or that you confuse people on screen and they can't follow the script. I feel like that is true with Yvonne Strahovski because I literally can't follow the plot of anything she's in.

I'm sorry but I'm happier with a younger cast.
You have to think of longevity and casting someone in their late 40's/early 50's is okay if you're Tony Stark in an Iron Man CGI suit but not when you're a member of the F4.

Never go the appeal with Yvonne. I've said this before and got criticised, but I can't lie.
I think she's a pretty girl but never found her to be all that good of an actress.

For Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic I actually agree with you on Ewan McGregor, he would be perfect in this role

But for Sue Storm/Invisible Woman I would go with Charlize Theron, Alice Eve or even Diane Kruger

As for Johnny Storm I would go with Alex Pettyfer

As Ben Grimm/The Thing I would go with Joel Edgerton

But as for Victor Von Doom/Doctor Doom I would go with Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Benedict Cumberbatch or even Mark Strong or even Jason Isaacs

But as for Ms.Marvel I definitely agree with you on Rachel Nichols

@Shadow11 I didn't even think of Alice Eve but now that you mention it she would be perfect! I loved her in Star Trek and MiB3.

@CookieKid
so why not cast a black sue storm?
Either make them both black or dont at all.

having only one of the SIBLINGS being of a different race is just begging for controversies.

I dont have a problem with the race change of the character, but if they're going to change one of the siblings, they need to do it for both.

UltimateCookie - 5/1/2014, 3:44 AM
I disagree. I would rather not get into this whole debate about race but I looked at the possibility of a black Sue Storm for a while and I ended up going back to a white one. Some black females would definitely be in my honorable mentions though.

Some of the casting works for each character but the inclusion of Michael B Jordan in this cast let's the cast down.
I prefer BoomTubeB's casting and have Charles Dance as Annihilus and Mads Mikkelson as Dr Doom.
